The United Nations will be at the heart of our international activities. France will assume its full responsibilities at the Security Council by putting its status at the service of peace, respect for human rights and development.

Things bad begun make strong themselves by ill

William Shakespeare

It's amazing how, over time, a person's perspective can be altered.

Fred Durst

I was a very sickly kid. While I was in the hospital at age 7, my Dad brought me a stack of comic books to keep me occupied. I was hooked.

Len Wein

How would your life be different ifYou walked away from gossip and verbal defamation? Let today be the dayYou speak only the good you know of other people and encourage others to do the same.

Steve Maraboli

The human heart has hidden treasures, In secret kept, in silence sealed The thoughts, the hopes, the dreams, the pleasures, Whose charms were broken if revealed.

Charlotte Bronte

Falsehood is never in words; it is in things.

Italo Calvino

Where there are no rights, there are no duties.

Henri Benjamin Rebecque

Telling us to obey instinct is like telling us to obey 'people.' People say different things: so do instincts. Our instincts are at war. If it is held that the instinct for preserving the species should always be obeyed at the expense of other instincts, whence do we derive this rule of precedence? To listen to that instinct speaking in its own case and deciding in its own favour would be rather simple minded. Each instinct, if you listen to it, will claim to be gratified at the expense of all the rest. By the very act of listening to one rather than to others we have already prejudged the case. If we did not bring to the examination of our instincts a knowledge of their comparative dignity we could never learn it from them. And that knowledge cannot itself be instinctive: the judge cannot be one of the parties judged: or, if he is, the decision is worthless and there is no ground for placing preservation of the species above self-preservation or sexual appetite.

C.S. Lewis

The thought of two thousand people munching celery at the same time horrified me.

George Bernard Shaw

Science is a wonderful thing if one does not have to earn one's living at it.

Albert Einstein

Youth is unduly busy with pampering the outer person.

Horace

Life is the most exciting opportunity we have. But we have one shot. You graduate from college once, and that's it. You're going out of that nest. And you have to find that courage that's deep, deep, deep in there. Every step of the way.
